Abstract:

   This document requests the establishment of an IANA registry for
   Model Context Protocol [MCP-SPEC] tool surface names.  A tool surface
   name is the wire-level identifier by which a client invokes a typed
   capability on an MCP server.  Existing Morrison- family Internet-
   Drafts ([ORGALTER]) request IANA registration of specific surface
   names against a registry that does not yet exist.  This document
   establishes the registry mechanism so that subsequent specifications
   can register names without restating the registry's structure or
   registration procedure.

   The registry uses Specification Required registration with a
   Designated Expert pool [RFC8126].  Initial contents are the four
   surface names registered by [ORGALTER].  Vendor-prefix conventions
   are recommended but not mandated.
